Clinique giving me allergic rashes?

Hi, 👋 I’ve had a year of blepharitis issues which led to cellulitis and my eyes still flare from time to time. About three months ago I started switching all makeup and skin care to Clinique and my eyelids and eye area is worse than ever and now my lips are peeling. feeling so defeated as I changed to an expensive brand to combat these issues! I used no7 before.

has anyone else had this or similar issues? I know I need to eliminate products to find the culprit - I use so much though … make up remover, cleanser, toner, serum, moisturiser, primer, foundation, than make up products. Is there a reliable safe brand I can replace these with while I work out what the issue is? I find it difficult to imagine not putting anything on, and for how long …

the other thing I have started is collagen powder but honestly I have been so inconsistent taking this I don’t think that can be the issue! Any help very much appreciated - I am looking so puffy right now!

I can’t use Clinique either.
Origins, Faith in Nature or Nivea.
These days, mostly Nivea.

Cerave balm cleanser (only available at some Superdrug), cerave moisturiser with SPF 50.
I used Olay for years then kept getting horrible dermatitis and needing antibiotics. Tried Simple, no good.
